Part 1 - 86 yo cactus | Oldest plant rehabilitation to date! She is the sweetest customer & we will treat this holiday cactus with the utmost care. It’s important to note that these are jungle cacti—not desert cacti, so they need more water. #PlantTok #plantshop #planttips

🪴 THE POT YOU PUT YOUR PLANT IN MATTERS WAY MORE THAN YOU THINK! A plant in the wrong pot can become a constant battle with watering, root rot, drying out, and even temperature stress. Here’s how I choose my pots: 🏺 TERRACOTTA: Best for plants that like to dry out between waterings. It’s VERY porous, so moisture evaporates through the sides and the soil dries faster. Great for succulents, cacti, snake plants, hoyas, and other plants that hate staying wet. The downside? You’ll need to water more frequently so avoid putting anything moisture sensitive into this material!!! 🪴 PLASTIC: Holds onto moisture longer because it doesn’t breathe. This is great for plants that prefer consistently moist soil or for anyone who tends to forget to water. It’s also lightweight, inexpensive, and doesn’t heat up or cool down as quickly (except black plastic pots which conduct heat in direct sun) 🤍 CERAMIC: Glazed ceramic behaves much more like plastic because the glaze prevents water from evaporating through the pot. Unglazed ceramic is more breathable! Ceramic is also heavier, which can be a huge advantage for large plants that get top heavy! 💧 DRAINAGE I don’t care how gorgeous the pot is… if there’s no drainage hole, I don’t want my plant living in it. A decorative pot without drainage can work as a cachepot: keep your plant in a nursery pot with drainage and drop it inside. So before you buy a pot because it’s cute, ask : Does this plant like to dry out or stay moist? Does the pot have drainage? How quickly do I want the soil to dry? And is this pot going to get HOT? Because sometimes the best thing you can buy for your plant isn’t another fertilizer or fancy soil! It’s the right pot. 🪴 #planttips #howto #gardeningtiktokcontest ##gardening#garden

100 little babies 🥹 I'm not okay so excited that the little seedlings have popped their first leaves 🙌🏽 it still hasn't hit me yet that I did this but I'm so proud of them and me for how far I've come in my plant journey to be able to do this. #plants #anthuriums #anthuriumhybrid #planttips #houseplants

the seeds are sprouting 🥹 still can't believe I've successfully hybridized an anthurium and yes, I do plan to nickname the cross something... once a leaf pops! 🤭 maybe you can help me with a name? #anthurium #anthuriumhybrid #seedgermination #planttips #houseplants

Replying to @Herbal Creatrix 🐍 i like to know the science behind things, what can i say 🤷🏾♀️😆 its the STEM girl in me. Anyway, sprinkling egg shells around the base of your plants does nothing for their calcium intake. Do you know they find egg shells in archaeological digs? Dilute this solution further and youve got something that helps your plants. I ended up having to pour this into a much bigger container because it was bubbling over 😆😆 #garden #gardener #planttips #eggshellmagic #plantcalcium #makingeggshellssoluble #pepperplants
